Parallel Sets

Parallel Sets (ParSets) is a visualization application for categorical data, like census and survey data, inventory, and many other kinds of data that can be summed up in a cross-tabulation. ParSets provide a simple, interactive way to explore and analyze such data. Even though the screenshots here show the Mac version, the program also runs on Windows and Linux. Basic Operation To open an existing dataset, select it in the list and either double-click it or click the Open button. The horizontal bars in the visualization show the absolute frequency of how often each category occurred: in this example, the top line shows the distribution between the passenger classes on the Titanic and the crew. The middle dimension shows a male to female ratio of almost 4 to 1. Between the dimension bars are ribbons that connect categories and split up. Interaction Move your mouse over the display to see the tooltip telling you more about the data. Downloading Online Data Sets Importing Your Own Data

Google Chart Tools API Google Charts provides a perfect way to visualize data on your website. From simple line charts to complex hierarchical tree maps, the chart gallery provides a large number of ready-to-use chart types. The most common way to use Google Charts is with simple JavaScript that you embed in your web page. You load some Google Chart libraries, list the data to be charted, select options to customize your chart, and finally create a chart object with an id that you choose. That's all you need to get started. Charts are exposed as JavaScript classes, and Google Charts provides many chart types for you to use. All chart types are populated with data using the DataTable class, making it easy to switch between chart types as you experiment to find the ideal appearance. Ready to create your first chart? Our tools are constantly evolving to better address your needs; we depend on your feedback to help us prioritize which features to include.

Fineo UPDATE: the project is no longer supported, since it’s part of RawGraphs. Check it out here: rawgraphs.io. Fineo is a web application which implements a visualization technique based on the visual model of Sankey diagrams. Fineo was born from the idea that Sankey diagrams, although developed as a technique for visualizing continuous data, may be used to represent relations between dimensions of categorical data. Introduction Categorical data representation is crucial for interpreting many real world phenomena. Moreover, to be able to make sense a multidimensional dataset, an interactive approach is strongly needed so that the user will be able to filter and relate only the information he is interested into. Sankey Diagrams Sankey diagrams are flow diagrams that represent flows of continuous data such as money, energy or material in a system. We have chosen to conceptually base Fineo on sankey diagrams for three main reasons: Fineo and ParSets Fineo, instead, is much more network-like.
